Our Story
First Steps Bilingual Preschool and Childcare was created to give Beaverton families a place where children can feel safe, supported, and genuinely known from their earliest months through the preschool years. We wanted to build more than a childcare center. We wanted to create a warm, bilingual community where children are encouraged to grow with confidence, curiosity, and joy.
As parents and educators, we understand how important it is to find a program that feels trustworthy, consistent, and caring. That is why we focus on strong relationships with families, age-appropriate learning, and a daily experience that balances nurturing care with meaningful development.
At First Steps, our mission is to support the whole child through bilingual learning, play-based exploration, and responsive care that helps children build social, emotional, and early academic foundations. We are proud to serve families in Beaverton with a program that feels personal, welcoming, and rooted in respect for every child.
Meet The Heart Of Our Care
Our Team
Our team is made up of caring, bilingual early childhood educators who bring patience, professionalism, and heart to their work every day. We believe children learn best when they feel safe, connected, and understood, so our teachers focus first on building strong relationships in the classroom.
Families can expect thoughtful communication, consistent routines, and teachers who pay close attention to each child’s development, personality, and needs. From infancy through preschool, our staff works together to create a welcoming environment where children can explore, build confidence, and enjoy learning in both English and Spanish.
Our teachers also participate in ongoing training and professional development so they can continue bringing strong early childhood practices, safety awareness, and developmental knowledge into the classroom.
Our Programs
We offer bilingual care and early learning programs for infants, toddlers, and preschoolers, with each classroom designed to support the needs of that stage of development. From nurturing infant care to toddler exploration and preschool readiness, our programs give families a connected experience as children grow. Learn more about each age group on our Programs page.

Our Philosophy
Our philosophy is simple: children thrive when they feel safe, loved, and engaged in meaningful experiences. We believe early education should support the whole child through play, connection, language, movement, and emotional development.
In our classrooms, that means creating a balance of nurturing care, age-appropriate structure, bilingual interaction, and hands-on learning. We want children to feel confident exploring their environment, building relationships, and discovering new skills at their own pace.
